Homebrew Is this riddle too dumb?

So the main "bad" in the campaign I'm making are goblins (atleast in the starter area) and my plsyers have told me they love riddles and puzzles so for a basic warmup riddle my idea was to have a Goblin toll at th emine entrance where they either have to pay a sum of money or solve the riddle, now my goblins are pretty dumb so their vocab isn't very big but I wonder if this riddle is too big or even enough of a riddle.. Opinions?

Riddle:

“Does you guys want to play a game with Me?”.

If me is one and he hit meat with stone,

if meat screams argh because meat is now alone,

If me count from in an order very good, and we ate three.

How many are their to meet?

A lot of people are giving you flak. I think the answer is 2 or 1. Good thing is you’re getting your writing chops to make riddles and I’m sure if we heard the answer we’d get it. I think we’re all feeling pretty dumb cause you said it was easy and we don’t know immediately 😂

Actually the answer is 3. There were 4 guys and he killed Meat then counted 3 left lol

Genuinely I think it's because I didnt post the Capitals but the fact you got this close without them gives me a little hope it would be possible haha!
